Friends Stocks were incredibly calm today, despite this afternoon’s political intrigue as General Kelly evidently didn’t want anything to do with the “Mooch”.

Friends Earnings season stubbed its toe just a little bit today, as releases from Amazon, ExxonMobil and Starbucks all disappointed market participants. Stocks in general traded with a negative bias for most of the session, but as has been the case lately, not with much conviction. Despite political theater...
